No issues with Gregory going We play one up top Vokes Diouf Campbell
We could ideally do with one more BUT when Gregory plays he misses so many chances. I personally think Diouf has the same engine , is better in the air and scores more. To cut wages and be within FFP if I had choose one I’d choose to keep diouf.

The Football Insider story does seem to indicate we're open to it. It'd probably be another £500k saved. Suppose we would have Vokes, Campbell, and Diouf for the one slot. Dioufy hasn't played, Vokes isn't scoring and who knows with Campbells fitness for the next few months so you'd hope we wouldn't leave ourselves short?

If we don't replace him with another body at least Ngoy should get more game time so that's a bonus

Gregory should be one of the few players we can sell having not signed him for a fee. He'll be gone in the summer I'd imagine.

If we let him leave without bringing in a replacement like every other club seems to do then it would be utter madness. If its a loan then you can bet your life we wouldnt stick in a clause stating he couldnt play against us at the end of February as well.I thought it was automatic that loanees can't play against their parent club in the league - and nothing to do with inserting a clause.

That's certainly a prem rule, does it also count down the leagues?

Nonsense.
Bayern reassures us all that MBD is far and away our best striker.
So unless we sell him today (highly unlikely), we're sorted.
😉 He is though. But it has to be one in, one out. Diouf, Vokes and Campbell isn't enough. Unless he trusts Ngoy as 4th choice, which I'm cool with tbh.

Unless he trusts Ngoy as 4th choice, which I'm cool with tbh. im fine with us loaning him out bit question why a loan and why not a permanent deal if we don’t want him. He’s 30 years old, was on a free and if we loan him we have him back probably much less motivated. I say if we can get 1m for him then take it

It makes no sense really and doesn't fit the accounting bullshit line. We haven't got any transfer fee to worry about being a loss. A million or two and be rid of his wages. Happy days.

It'll be interesting to see if we consider it. There's a tiny amount of logic in that we could hope this would lead to a sale in the summer, but that doesn't outweigh how comically light we'd be left up top.

Vokes, Diouf, Campbell and Ngoy isn't crazily light though. Interesting if MON thinks the 500k saved outweights any jitters about being caught short up front. Always the chance we'd put it into the Cosgrove fund or get a youngster on loan?

Less about the 500K saved now and more about the potential this would have for them buying him in the summer if he is successful surely? I think it'd be with an eye to get Cosgrove but surely that's in the summer now, we'd barely have time to sign them let alone let them replace him so they'd rinse us if we went desperately to them now. Diouf seems bomb squadded, Campbell is injured and N'Goy is A. barely had any game time for ages and B. more of a left winger than a forward last I checked.

Although he turns 32 this summer. I know Harris is a fan, but offering big bucks to him this summer may be a stretch. Fingers crossed though

Can understand the loan, this way he cant play against us in a few weeks and also if he does find his striking boots then it may shove his stock up a little bit more in summer time.

If Diouf is "bomb squadded", who was the bloke who came on as sub against Swansea? Yeah but seems like that was because of a lack of viable options? He literally came on and scored, but has not played since which isn't really a sign he's particularly wanted by the management.

We should not be getting rid of Gregory. Especially with an injured Campbell and Vokes isn’t exactly great is he

Especially with an injured Campbell and Vokes isn’t exactly great is he The ball regularly bounces off Gregory, I’m not buying into this “ he holds the ball up well” argument. He’s totally ineffective, and had pretty much missed every gilt edged chance he’s had all season......
